Its a terrible idea and if you do it then you deserve any problems that come your way.

You'll have a hard time convincing even me who isn't totally against keeping two snakes of the same species together, to even keep those two snakes together.

However two snakes of different species? Completely different genus and family? Even worse.

Don't do it because it's stupid and borderline animal abuse.


Also, both milk snakes and ball pythons are nocturnal.
Chill no need to ruffle feathers, if you would've read the post you would know already i don't even have the cage. Time to take a breather before calling PETA i'm not doing live animal testing on my BP . Also Milk Snakes are diurnal, they have a unique aspect to being diurnal though being they can change their sleep habits throughout the seasons. Also why do you assume the milk snake would just immediately hunt the BP? Majority examples of documented cannibalism from housing together it when you feed them at the same time. Please provide evidence of a milk snake going out of it's way to eat a BP for no reason which is the same size as the milk.
